So this explains why I can't resume a movie after pausing it. it just sits and buffers and I get a playback error. Is this a Roku specific error? If I switch clients, say to an Amazon fire stick, will the problem go away?

Also, is there a way to rollback your Roku to an earlier software version where it played nice with other apps?
